Are you writing code that never gets used? Are you struggling to make the code fit your requirements?

BDD builds upon several agile tools and practices like Acceptance-Test Driven Planning, Example-Driven Devlopment, FIT, User Stories and TDD, and bring them together in a consistent whole. This presentation will give an introduction to the principles and practices of BDD and demonstrate RSpec's two frameworks: Plain text User Stories and Object-level examples.

Abstract: Ruby on Rails is not the only web framework for Ruby. This
presentation will deomnstrate some of the lesser known ones like
Sinatra, Haml, Waves, Markaby and Ebb. These frameworks are great for
smaller applications when you don't need the full Rails stack. Some of
them are also great complements to Rails.
